Currently there are many nice behaviors that can be used for the caps lock key. It would be even better if caps lock could be turned into the menu key. So, adding something like the following to symbols/capslock: hidden partial modifier_keys xkb_symbols "capsmenu" { key <CAPS> { [ Menu ] }; };
In case anyone is curious about the motivation, I've written a blog post about it. http://blog.felipe.lessa.nom.br/?p=137
Would you be able to provide a patch for symbols/capslock, rules/base.o_s.part and rules/base.xml.in ? Also, would caps:super and caps:hyper be good enough for you?
> Also, would caps:super and caps:hyper be good enough for you? If by that you mean setting Caps Lock to Super/Hyper, I'm not sure but I don't think so, as I'm trying to use it as a non-modifier key on emacs.
